Abstract
Causing systemic problems in both acute and chronic health care settings, pressure ulcers and skin breakdown also severely impact individual patients, both emotionally and physically. However, with the help of proper medical procedures, neither ailment should be considered inevitable. This program outlines risk factors contributing to pressure ulcers and skin breakdown, highlights preventative measures for maintaining skin integrity, and suggests strategies for early intervention and treatment. Viewers receive information on commonly affected body areas; typical causes, such as immobility, friction, shearing forces, and moisture; and effective positioning, turning, cushioning, nutritional, and hygienic methods.
